Why thank you.

You need more knowledge.
I do okay for a newbie. If you weren't so busy trying to stir up some crapola, you might learn something too

I don't get it. Delivered loft, trajectory, have zero to do with it? Of course, I don't have the numbers for his #1 wood, but I saw him in Dublin this year and he hits a pretty high tee ball. I guess when I think about trapping the ball I think trajectory. How does Kenny "trap it" and still launch it? What am I missing?

I'm learning all the time, i read all your posts and try a lot of the advice you give and it has helped me. Someone else thought i was making a smart ass comment but they are wrong, it all depends on how you take it.
Sometimes you need to stir the pot, nothing personal.

Ahh..what is your definition of "trap it"?

I thought about it more and looked at Kennys swing..and I guess my definition of what Kenny does is that he "covers it" with nice axis tilt. That is how I would describe his swing.
I think Kenny is what I would call a trap draw player. Closed clubface or as Brian would say "less open" at impact swinging right.
When I think of a trap draw, I think less of trajectory and more of is the face a little shut at impact, there by slightly delofting the club with a draw action. Granted it may be a little lower, but you can still hit it plenty high. And as Kenny has shown, plenty far.

Do a search one both topics. Millions of good threads on both
Clubface is 85% of direction.
here we go again...what's is the "tumble"?

Hi Kevin, was reading through some old posts and came across this trap draw pattern quote. Do you still use this? With all the recent trackman, D-plane and scientific research that has come out, would you change any components of this? Lastly, i find this to be rather natural to perform, and can hit it consistantly, but it limits me to left to right. Can this simple pattern be manipulated to hit a fade? Thanks in advance. Peter

This is very similar to my current pattern.
I am setup right but set the face square to where I want the ball to start.
Twistaway to the top
strong grip
dont know about tumble
but hands and right shoulder in left pocket is a very good "feel" description.
I get usually a straight shot or slight draw. its a very easy pattern and there is not alot of forearm rotation so you dont have to worry about squaring the face.
